A point I've made about GAAGO a few times is that, to me, it 100% seems like a staging post on the route to semi-pro GAA. Once it gets really established costs will further recede and profits increase. I've no doubt Sean K looks at GAA financial figures throough his previous GPA head - how long before we hear 'GAAGO made €Xm this year and the players who are the product get nothing'  only a matter of time imo.

Season over, no coming back from that gut punch.

Put numerous men on the square the odd time,really push up, put the ball in, create mayhem & panic. Worked v Galway. Won't happen, but still.

I expect disappointment but live in hope. Huge game, defeat is the end of the road for this Armagh team - it is as simple as that imo, nowhere near the same level of pressure on Donegal.

There wasn't one decent kick pass in the league final, I'd expect Armagh to pepper the Donegal square regularly this time - in between the basketball. It'll be an interesting game, hopefully with a few surprises.

Definite need for replacements. O'Riley is a cert to go. Could see Kyogo going as well imo as I dont think BR values him as much as Ange did. Carter vickers another strong possibility.

Jesus, surprised to hear that in this era of milking it. Derry will be sick 2nite.

I take it both go forward into AI QFs anyway - what is the QF draw?

Good to see the Penalty Kick Champs are mentally recovering from their embarrassing home defeat to plucky Division 2 Champs Donegal. Certs for the AI.

St Galls split in the camp

The final is a game that's got 0.13 to 0.12 written all over it! It will be an arm wrestle. My biggest fear is the Armagh sideline, there'll no doubt by some unnecessary tactical masterstroke from McGeeney. It'll likely be a game that will be won ugly, so i don't care how it's won, but I would really like to see us play to our strengths and have some balls.

Looking forward to today's game but I think it could he a damp squib too. If Tyrone don't adapt their gameplan significantly I can only see a Donegal win,  so I think they will adapt.I'd prefer Armagh to play Tyrone in a classico Ulster Final tbh, not that I'd be overly confident of victory but mainly because McGeeney would grossly overthink a final v Jim Mcguinness.

Fully expected a shit fest and that's what it was, mainly because Down came with a targeted gameplan that they nearly executed, but the 2 poor goals clouds things a bit, plus they really were helped by some very generous refereeing decisions - directly responsible for 1.1, f**k nows what he was at there at the end.

Down going down the Red Star Belgrade route. Armagh look annoyed, might spark this shit show into life
